Do not use Spirit if you care about unlock. And do not upgrade to 3.1.3 just because Spirit jailbreaks it. There is no unlock available currently for 3.1.3.

Hi guys,

So I just got the iphone a couple weeks back, its a 16GB Factory Unlocked running the 3.1.3 firmware, so I Jailbroke it today with Spirit, and now a couple 'icons' are missing one is the 'App store' and the other I cant seem to recall.

I tried googling, but could not find much, any of this happen to you guys wen you JB your older boot rom phones?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try a clean install of 3.1.3.
Setup as a new phone. And re-jailbreak.

^^

[system drive]:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup

That's the location where iTunes saves the backups of your iPhone and/or iPod Touch. Just backup this folder and replace it after you reinstall windows :)

Well, your Music library is empty because you backed up only your iPhone data and not your Music library which is located in My Music > iTunes > iTunes Media.

I suppose you atleast have your original audio/media files so the only option you have right now is to create a fresh library in iTunes and redo all the playlists etc. you need from scratch and then sync it back to the iPhone. It will replace the existing music in your iPhone though.

Data added to Air Sharing can be accessed with Air sharing only, atleast in OS 3.0.

Guys any idea when it the darned unlock coming for the baseband 5.12.01 and firmware 3.13. I am waiting for it for the past 2 month and if i am not wrong the unlock was to coincide with the iphone 4 launch. Now all that has happened and still no signs of an unlock. The wait is killing.
